When it Comes to Minnesota Colleges, Think of Rasmussen as a School with a Heart - and a Brain

Why is Rasmussen College considered one of the best Minnesota colleges around? Mark Twain once said, "I never let my schooling interfere with my education". In the spirit of those words, Rasmussen College never lets schooling interfere with its students’ goals. And because Rasmussen College has been helping people train for successful and exciting careers for 108 years (when Mark Twain was alive, incidentally), we believe we'll be around longer than many other Minnesota colleges. Because our brand of education is personalized, technology-intensive, focused and innovative, so students can graduate in as little as 9-months, earn a two-year degree or a four-year degree with maximum job placement potential.

In Twain’s era, there were no Minnesota colleges with 24-7 Technical Support Centers, no Web-based classes with Online Academic Support, Professional Instructional Designers, or Lifetime Job-Placement Assistance. These value-added benefits put a new stamp on career-focused education to set Rasmussen apart from other Minnesota colleges. Because Rasmussen College’s goal is to streamline specialized training and degree programs and clear the obstacles to a brighter future.

Of all the Minnesota Colleges, Rasmussen College has Everything You’re Looking for

Rasmussen College’s five Minnesota campus locations are conveniently located in community-like settings with the appeal you’d expect from Minnesota colleges. With smaller average class sizes, students enjoy a more personal educational environment, plus an unexpected layer of interaction between students and faculty and a sense of community, which has become more and more uncommon in larger Minnesota colleges and business schools.

This year in the United States, there are over 400,000 unfilled technical positions in the IT industry alone. Then there are shortages in healthcare providers, call center managers, early childhood providers, and crime specialists. Many Minnesota colleges admit to these shortages, but few work diligently to update classes and programs to these emerging workforce demands. Rasmussen College has consistently been able to provide courses, experienced professional faculty, and modern facilities to provide students with the education to move forward.
